Around 6:10 p.m. on Thursday Charlie Phillips, of Atmore,
was riding a bike near the 35-mile marker on U.S. 31, approximately five miles
south of Atmore, said Alabama State Trooper Kevin Cook in a news release.

He was struck by a 1996 Chevrolet driven by 46-year-old
Rodney Brooks, also of Atmore, Cook said.

The circumstances of the crash remain unclear as Troopers
continue their investigation.
